gollark: Would it not make more sense to average someone's results (though only results with similar experimentation techniques)?
gollark: Wait, we should leave it at four broccolis and one other thing.
gollark: This is my first experiment; if it goes non-terribly I might run more with random cheap AP stuff. It's nice having a resource for them which isn't pointlessly censored.
gollark: Yes, as that will happen occasionally given enough runs.
gollark: At least I'll probably get a purple siyat out of mine if it goes badly.
